Agreed.I liked Tales of the Infinite Staircase, though that was very much a sandbox module only connected by theme.
I ran a 5e conversion of Umbra as a 6th level two-shot earlier this year. Still have my notes, if you decide to run it, I can share them.By chance, I have that issue. Checking it out now!
That's generally what I try to do anyway. Keep the module useful but give the players actual agency and relevant choices.A lot of the 2e adventures had very evocative locations but were railroads in 2e fashion. If I was going to 'run' any of them now I would have to take them apart and make them more open ended.
From the Collector's Guide post...Technically, there were only 2 PS adventures in Dungeon during the 2e period. I'm still checking beyond that....
